Bert Kreischer: Lucky

Bert Kreischer has officially run out of things to say. Lucky is not just a bad special-it's a painful, bloated, and desperate attempt to stretch out what little material he has left. If you were hoping for something fresh, clever, or even remotely different from his last few specials, you'll be sorely disappointed. At this point, Bert isn't even trying. He's just coasting on his persona, hoping his obnoxious energy and relentless shirtless gimmick will carry him through another hour. Spoiler alert: it doesn't. The jokes are predictable, drawn out, and lack any real payoff. Instead of well-crafted material, we get exaggerated, drunken rambling and self-indulgent storytelling that feels more suited for a podcast than a stand-up stage. His humor hasn't evolved, and his delivery-full of forced laughter at his own jokes-makes him even more insufferable. Lucky is lazy, unoriginal, and proof that Bert peaked long ago.

Worst comedy special I've ever seen. Immediately we had to see the shirt come off. His trademark. Something no one wants to see. Then he lights in on his poor wife. I'm sure she endorsed the jokes for the money but they were gross and disrespectful. The only right thing about this garbage was the name. He does admit that he's lucky. And he is. Lucky to have a rich daddy who put him through seven years of undergrad. Lucky to know Tom and Joe and end up on the comedy path while having almost zero talent. Watched it just to see if there were ANY jokes in sight. Nothing but a constant stream of drunken frat toddler stories that would only make a room full of fellow drunks laugh just because of the baudy language and extreme level of gross. Netflix is indeed a joke for airing this trash. Bert needs to hang it up.

Ok, his shtick is getting really old. Yes, he has his go to "Machine" bit, the movie was miserable and not enjoyable, but that it. Unlike his podcast partner Tom S and most other powerful and success comdians, who evolve and have developed new material, Bert just falls to the same stuff (his frat days, what a great athlete was/is, blah blah blah). Delivery is the same, the bits are pretty much the same. Do we really need you to rip off your shirt every single performance? Yes, some chuckles here and there, but for the most part it was pretty boring. Would love to see him venture out and push his boundaries a bit. Push the envelop and give us something new and refreshing.

I will preface this review by saying I am a fan. Put this show on thinking I could have it on just as background noise. I was continuously laughing.

I loved it all. Will probably watch again.

If you're not a fan, obviously this isn't for you but if. You like him at all. I think you will find this hilarious. I guess now I have to keep talking to make my minimum characters. Not much else else to say actually. I really like Bert Kreischer. I have to listen to the podcast. Next time I'm planning on watching his movie.. Maybe I'll go do that right now. What else can I say. Really enjoyed that comedy special.

Bert Kreischer's "Lucky" is a masterclass in stand-up comedy that finds a rare balance between outrageous humor and heartfelt storytelling. Kreischer's effortless charm and infectious energy light up the stage as he dives into personal anecdotes, making even his most absurd tales feel deeply relatable. His storytelling is punctuated by impeccable timing and a fearless willingness to embrace life's unpredictable twists, earning genuine laughs and moments of surprising introspection.

The production is polished without feeling overproduced, allowing Kreischer's natural charisma to shine through. The intimate setting draws you in as if you're right there in the crowd, sharing in the hilarity and warmth of his performance. "Lucky" stands out not just for its belly laughs but also for its honest reflections on the ups and downs of life, making it a refreshing departure from typical stand-up routines.

While a couple of jokes may not land for every viewer, the overall experience is so engaging and spirited that it earns a solid 9 out of 10 stars. "Lucky" is a must-watch for anyone who appreciates comedy that's both smart and unapologetically fun.
